Maps on the Hill 2017 Contest Winners

This article will take 1 minute to read

In an effort to reward the best work at Maps on the Hill 2017, a judged contest was added to this year’s event in the capitol rotunda. Recognition and small prizes (Utah AGRC wall maps and ESRI press books) were awarded to the map displays that best conveyed the value of GIS-based solutions.

While the contest was based on the physical display at the event, the page numbers for the corresponding entry in this year’s Maps on the Hill pdf booklet are shown in parentheses.

In the inaugural MOTH contest, the winning FFSL entry went so far as to deploy a made-special-for-the-event simulated campfire to complement their excellent map-based information on wildfire risk across the state. That sets the bar high for those thinking about competing for next year’s crown!

Thanks again to our judges, participants, and volunteers for your part in making this a great event!
